O2 Sim Problem? Help

After installing O2 simulators I still have codes p0037 and p0057 wich are for the heated O2 signal wire. There is no place on the simulators for these wires. The wires have 12v grouond and signal but nothing for the heated wire? Do I have to keep my O2 sensors in the car somewhere and run the heated wires to them still?

The simulator does not generate the heater wire, the website has and FAQ on how to generate it and there is an resistor of specific wattage which would do that. Check the website, they do talk about it.

you can either add resistors to "simulate" the o2 sensor heater, or just leave the o2 sensor plugged in.. the resistors that is needed gets fairly hot so you can't mount it anywhere inside the car. i just ziptied my o2's in the engine bay.

I'll probly go with the resistors, The O2 sensors get really hot when hooked up anyway. At least they did when I had them plugged in with no sims. Maby without the 12V and ground they wont get hot. I'll screw with it at work tommorow and see what I can do. Thanks for the info
